To me, journaling is more than something we do when we have a problem to solve or a feeling to work through. It’s a lifestyle choice and the regular practice of turning our attention inward, understanding ourselves more clearly, and becoming more conscious of the way we move through the world.

The Journaling Wheel in action…

When we journal, we generally use different combinations of techniques, themes, and structures.

It’s also possible to experience journaling differently too. We can be absorbed in our thoughts and feelings or write from a more neutral or observant place.

The different combinations of techniques, themes and structures have given rise to a variety of familiar journaling styles.
